Media personality Bridget Otoo has voiced her strong disapproval of NPP flagbearer Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia's recent campaign promise to make smartphones more accessible to Ghanaians through a credit system.

It could be recalled that Dr. Bawumia, speaking at a campaign event in the Savannah Region, pledged to make smartphones more accessible to Ghanaians if elected president.

He outlined a plan to collaborate with phone manufacturers to provide smartphones on a credit basis, allowing citizens to pay as little as one or two cedis per month.

His promise was met with mixed reactions on and off social media, including Bridget Otoo.

In a tweet on July 23, 2024, Bridget Otoo pointed out the impracticality of the proposal, stating that it would take a long period of time for someone to pay back at such rates.

"4500 cedis means it would take 37 years to finish paying. Does it make sense to him?"

She further criticised the plan as disrespectful to voters, adding that it underestimates their intelligence.

"This is not even desperation but just disrespectful to think your voters are stupid," she added.
